Content Marketing Manager

ABOUT RETELL AI
Retell AI is using the first principles to reimagine the call center with cutting edge voice AI.
Since launching 18 months ago, thousands of companies now utilize Retell’s AI voice agents to handle sales, support, and logistics calls that once required large teams of human agents. Backed by Y Combinator, Alt Capital, and other leading investors, we have scaled to $36M ARR with a team of 20 people, up from $5M at the start of 2025.
Our vision for 2026 is to build a modern CX platform where entire contact centers are powered by AI. Instead of basic automation that needs constant human tuning, we’re creating intelligent AI “workers” that can act as frontline agents, QA analysts, and managers — continuously executing, monitoring, and improving customer interactions.
We’re growing quickly and looking for ambitious builders who want to tackle hard technical problems, move fast, and have real impact at one of the fastest-growing voice AI startups.
Let’s build the future together.

ABOUT THE ROLE
As our Content Marketing Manager, you will own the narratives that help the world discover, understand, and engage with Retell AI. This is a high-ownership, execution-heavy role focused on researching, writing, and shipping content at a fast pace.
You’ll work directly with founders, product, and engineering to turn product updates, customer stories, and SEO opportunities into published content — quickly and consistently. From blogs and announcements to landing pages and social posts, you’ll be responsible for getting content live and moving on to the next thing with a strong bias for action.
This role is for someone who loves to create. You’re not here to build a large team or manage a long-term content roadmap — you want to produce, ship, iterate, and see your work drive real results in a fast-moving startup environment.
KEY RESPONSIBILITIES
Write 3–4 SEO-optimized articles per week that improve search visibility and drive organic growth.
Write feature announcements and product update posts, turning raw product changes into clear, compelling narratives.
Write and refine landing page and website copy to improve clarity and conversion.
Write social posts and LinkedIn content that highlight product updates, customer wins, and thought leadership.
Collaborate closely with product to understand what we’re building — then explain it clearly and simply.
Own PR and media relations, including pitching stories to press and managing press interviews.
Lead customer story development, including interviewing customers and turning insights into compelling case studies and narratives.
YOU MIGHT THRIVE IF
Have 5+ years of content marketing experience, ideally in SaaS, AI, or developer-facing products.
You write fast and clean — your first drafts need edits, not rewrites.
You’ve published 100+ articles, not just a handful.
You get antsy if you haven’t shipped something by noon — you prefer producing over planning.
You can learn complex topics (AI, telephony, APIs) and explain them simply.
Bonus: you have technical skills or experience writing for dev audiences.
PORTFOLIO ASK
When applying, please include a portfolio.
Specifically, we’d love to see a before-and-after example: a technical changelog, release note, or product update that you turned into a polished, world-class announcement. Include the original raw input and the final version you shipped.
Tell us the customer value behind it — why should anyone care?
If you’re the kind of candidate we’re looking for, you probably already have something like this in your portfolio. If so, you’re likely a great fit here.
